Committee Issues Special Aviation Education Report
A special 109 page report on aviation education compiled by Dr. George B. Smith, dean of the School of Education, and five other leading educators was recently issued.
The report was prepared by the aviation education committee of the American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education. It was sponsored by the U. S. department of commerce and the Civil Aeronautics administration. The committee met for five days in May at Washington D. C.
The study discusses aviation and its implications, the place of aviation in the elementary and secondary schools, and the understanding of aviation by future teachers. It includes 18 pages of bibliography and outlines of present programs in aviation education being used throughout the nation.
The committee listed five major reasons for the need of planning for aviation education in schools:
1. The increasingly large place that aviation is taking in the economic, social, and political lives of the people.
2. The wealth of valuable, and in some cases essential information materials, skills, and interests available in the field of aviation education.
3. The great variety of interests and real life materials available in the field to help the program create student interest.
4. The necessity for all teachers to be aware of the possible implications of aviation education in the learning situations of most subject-matter.
5. The excellent aviation educational work that the aviation education division of the Civil Aeronautics administration is doing through its program of workshops, consultants, institutes, and preparation of curriculum materials.
The committee feels that the implication of aviation on our civilization is not yet fully felt. It has recommended the continuing study to develop the field for the nation's schools.
Outlines of the teacher training programs are contained in the booklet to help colleges develop the program.
